Traditionally, anyone with a house to sell in the U.K. would use an Estate Agent. As they were ranked 2nd in a Radio 4 poll of "least respected workers" (M.P.'s were 1st!), for many people they are seen as a necessary evil.

A small minority of people manage to sell their house privately by doing their own advertising and putting up their own For Sale board, but as their property does not appear in the Estate Agent's press adverts or websites, this is very much a hit and miss affair.

Even when a sale is secured, the legal system in England & Wales means that until contracts are exchanged - typically many weeks later - the sale can fall through. In fact one in three agreed sales do not complete, meaning that the sale process has to start all over again.

For anyone relocating or emigrating this is frustrating and annoying as plans have to be put on hold. For people with financial difficulties or in danger of having their house repossessed, it can be very serious indeed.

A realistic alternative to Estate Agents

At last there is an alternative to using an Estate Agent. Using a specialist property-buying company offers the speed and certainty lacking if selling on the open market through an Estate Agent.

Companies like A Quick Sale are now offering a service that more and more people see as a better alternative than waiting and hoping for an elusive buyer. They will normally make an offer to buy a property within a few days, completing at a date to suit you, so that people can move on with their lives.

So, what's the catch? Well, the main one is that they will be looking to buy the property at a reduction from the open market value. How much of a reduction often depends on the type and size of property but is likely to be at least 10%.

The other thing to watch out for is that some of these companies charge an upfront valuation fee of several hundred pounds. Whilst this is usually refundable if you go ahead and sell to them, it is quite possible that their offer on your property will be unacceptable to you, leaving you out of pocket!

Questions to ask

If the speed and certainty of selling to a property-buying company appeals to you, what do you need to look out for?

Probably the first question to ask is - will it cost me anything to get an offer on my property? A national house buying company featured on Watchdog last year after many complaints fro people who had paid a valuation fee and then offered much less than their property was worth.

You wouldn't expect to pay an Estate Agent for a valuation, so why pay these companies?

The next question most people need answering is - can I rely on this company? Can they fit around me? These companies should be asking you about your timescales and deadlines and tailoring a solution around these. Look carefully at their literature and website to see if they are flexible and offer a range of solutions. It is also a good idea to ask them for examples or testimonials from previous customers.

So, if you have a property to sell, before you call an Estate Agent, it might be worth checking out a couple of these companies who can offer you a quick sale.

The Power of Articlesaur Article Directory

The power of Articlesaur is its ability to gain exposure and promote its writers. At present, we have Forty-One general subjects covering a very wide range of subjects. This means that, as a writer, you are assured of finding a home for your articles. As a publisher, it means that you will find the material you are looking for.

The key to the process begins with quality writers and the volume and quality of article submissions that come in each day. This means that there is always fresh and original content to meet the needs of any publisher. This will in turn mean more publishers coming to Articlesaur.com to find their material and in turn greater exposure for the writers.

This is a win-win situation for both the publishers and the writers. For the writers, you will find that there is no cost to you to set up an account or to submit your articles. After creating an account, you will find that with each article you submit, your website will gain exposure and additional links to it. This will help you rank higher on any of the search engines.

You will also find that, since your name is attached to the article when it is published, you will become known as an expert in the subject you write on. This will translate into more business for your website and it will increase the amount of money you are able to make. When people see your name over and over they begin to look at you as an expert and someone they can trust. People will buy products and services more often from people they trust.

The power of this article directory is in what it can do for the writer in its ability to target your audience. This is because of the simple fact that the publishers that are looking at your articles are interested in what you have to say. They, in turn, provide an audience for your articles on their websites and newsletters and the people that read them are also people that are specifically looking for what you have to offer. This is something that you cannot get through any other medium.

With ads, you are never sure who is looking at them and how many simply go past them because they were not interested in what you are selling. If you write an article on a particular kind of dog and submit your article to Articlesaur.com it will be published by people interested in that type of dog. Then your article will be read by people that are interested in that type of dog. They will go to your website and look at your product or service and spend their hard-earned money with you.
